Jovenel Moïse (French pronunciation: [ʒɔv(ə)nɛl mɔiz]; Haitian Creole pronunciation: [ʒovɛnɛl mɔiz]; ( 26 June 1968 – 7 July 2021) was a Haitian politician and businessman who served as the 48th president of Haiti from 2017 until his assassination in 2021. He assumed the presidency in February 2017 following his victory in the November 2016 Haitian presidential election. Soon after Moïse's term as president started, it would be overshadowed by Haiti's descent into a severe state of crisis characterized by civil unrest, gang-related violence, severe fuel shortages and general lawlessness. At approximately 1:00am in the morning on July 7, 2021, Moïse was shot several times and killed in a premeditated targeted attack at his private home in Pétion-Ville, Port-au-Prince.
